Our supporters

VicHealth

VicHealth doesn’t just do health education or awareness-raising. It also focuses on making changes in our social, economic, cultural and physical environments to improve everyone’s health and wellbeing. They fund Victoria Walks because walking is a great way of increasing physical activity and combating obesity, traffic congestion, pollution and a host of preventable diseases.

Like Victoria Walks, VicHealth encourages urban planners and municipal health officers to think about how our neighbourhoods can support health and wellbeing. It also supports community arts and cultural festivals that help build connections within neighbourhoods and local areas.
